On Properties and Applications of Lomax-Gompertz Distribution

Abstract: This article introduces a new distribution called the Lomax-Gompertz distribution developed through a Lomax Generator proposed in an earlier study. Some statistical properties of the proposed distribution comprising moments, moment generating function, characteristics function, quantile function and the distribution of order statistics were derived. The plots of the probability density function revealed that it is positively skewed. The model parameters have been estimated using the method of maximum likelihood. The plot the of survival function indicates that the Lomax-Gompertz distribution could be used to model time or age-dependent data, where probability of survival is believed to be decreasing with time or age. The performance of the Lomax-Gompertz distribution has been compared to other generalizations of the Gompertz distribution using three real-life datasets used in earlier researches.

Maximum likelihood estimation based on ranked set sampling designs for two extensions of the Lindley distribution with uncensored and right-censored data

TL;DR: This paper examines the performance of the maximum likelihood estimators from RSS-based designs with the corresponding SRS estimators when the data are assumed to follow a Power Lindley or a Weighted Lindley distribution.

Statistical Inference for Lindley Model based on Type II Censored Data

TL;DR: The expectation maximization (EM) algorithm and direct maximization methods are used to obtained the maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) and a bias corrected estimator based on parametric bootstrap is developed.

Odd Burr Power Lindley Distribution with Properties and Applications

TL;DR: The odd Burr power Lindley (OBPL) distribution as discussed by the authors extends the Lindley distribution and has increasing, upside-down and bathtub shapes for the hazard rate function, which may be useful to still more complex situations.

The extended gamma distribution with regression model and applications

TL;DR: In this article, a new extension of the gamma distribution, named as a new extended gamma distribution via mixture representation of xgamma and gamma distributions, was introduced, and statistical properties of the proposed distribution are derived such as moment generating and characteristic functions, variance, skewness, and kurtosis measures, Lorenz curve, and mean residual life function.
